Ólafur Arnalds revisits one of his classics.

Following his recent musical contribution to Chloé Zhao's stunning film award success Nomadland, the prolific BAFTA-winning Icelandic composer shares this brand new, completely reworked 2021 version of his Erased Tapes 5th anniversary box set piece Happiness Does Not Wait.

"It has been almost 10 years since I wrote Happiness Does Not Wait. In preparing for a project coming this fall, I had to go back and reopen the mix... I felt it deserved a make-over. So here it is, remixed and remastered: the 2021 version"
